meek, unsuspicious, invalid minister of the gospel, calls them, and many a meal, bundle of straw and other kindness they receive from him; and his faith in them could not be shaken by such instances as the following, until a day or two ago: "Massa, dem hame strings gone!" "Hame strings gone, Frederick, where are they gone?" "Dunno Massa, spects dem soldiers what got straw yestiddy, dun tied em on to dar straps so dey could carry more." "Tut, tut, Frederick, accuse the noble Massa, spects dem soldiers what got straw yestiddy, dun tied em on to dar straps so dey could carry more." "Tut, tut, Frederick, accuse the noble soldiers of taking them, that won't do." But there was the turning point. Soldier No. 1 dropped in to get his dinner, depositing his gloves, coat, and bucket of butter, just purchases, on the hall table. Soldier No. 2 came in also, but ate hastily and left the table, returning to the sitting-room before anyone else. When the family and soldier No. 1 came in, the other had disappeared; also gloves and bucket. This led to some suspicion, and search was made to see if anything else was mi

but ate hastily and left the table, returning to the sitting-room before anyone else. When the family and soldier No. 1 came in, the other had disappeared; also gloves and bucket. This led to some suspicion, and search was made to see if anything else was missing. It was soon discovered that a small morocoo bag, containing a porte monnale with twenty dollars, was also gone, belonging to the lady of the house.

From Manassas. [Correspondence of the Richmond Dispatch.] Manassas Plains, Jan. 22, 1862. Rain, snow, sleet, mist, fog, mud, and the state of the weather generally, have for the time being, monopolized conversation to the exclusion of that everlasting topic "the advance and the expected battle." Since this miserable spell of weather set in the subject has been quietly laid aside; and, as it is the time since last July, that a week has gone first by without a rumor of the Federal force advancing, and it being such a great piece of news not to hear it, I concluded to send it to the Dispatch, hoping its readers will feel very grateful to hear such a piece of intelligence. A trip down to Centreville last week was quite an event, considering the state the roads are in now, but I felt amply repaid by the hearty greetings of my friends, and the opportunity I had of noting the change in the scene since I last travelled over the road. The old tents, in some cases dilapidated, mildew
